Trickle chargers are ideal for maintaining the charge in your vehicle’s 12 volt battery during periods of inactivity. When a vehicle sits idle for prolonged periods of time, small parasitic loads, such as the on- board computer system, will continuously draw power from the battery causing it to draining completely.

When a lead-acid battery is completely drained, the lifespan can be reduced by half. This means that you may have to replace your vehicle’s battery years earlier than expected. By keeping batteries topped-up, you will ensure that they remain healthy and will ultimately save you money in the long term.
